Abstract
The resistance of a commercial Cernox (ceramic-oxynitride) thermometer has been measured from 4.2 to 30 K in magnetic fields up to 15 T and compared to that of a carbon-glass thermometer. Throughout this field and temperature range, the maximum magnetic field-induced change in th e zero-field calibration of the Cernox thermometer is less than 200 mK . This is a factor of two lower than that of the carbon-glass thermome ter. Furthermore, its sensitivity at room temperature is a factor of t wo higher.
